  • Thanks a lot South Coast Autos for inviting me to Texas for the first time! It was a wonderful trip filled with awesome cars! For more info on this car or any others in their inventory, check out www.southcoastautos.com
    Hello and welcome to Saabkyle04! CZcams's largest collection of automotive variety! In today's video, we'll take an up close and personal, in depth look at the 2006 Mini Cooper S Convertible.
    During this presentation, we will take a 1st person look at what the vehicle is all about beginning with the start up, performance data, fuel economy, the occasional track data, and build quality. Also, I will teach you how to use most of the interior and exterior features in a detailed fashion, that before, you could only get from going to a dealership yourself! Throughout the video, I will highlight key styling and unique differences about the vehicle, any available options, and of course it would not be an enthusiast car video without the good ole engine portion with rev and exhaust note with interior and exterior perspectives. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
    FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE CHANNEL SEE BELOW: In this channel you will find in depth educational videos of automobiles from all over the world, presented in a more detailed fashion than ever before. Basically, this gives the viewer the chance to view the most detailed 1st person look you can get without going to an actual dealer yourself! Every video is consistent in the way I present so viewers know what to expect in my presentations. I treat every vehicle with the same respect whether a 1960 Chevrolet Impala SS or the 2012 Lamborghini Aventador. I film all types of vehicles from past, present, and future while broadening the knowledge of the automotive enthusiast. You will see everything from vintage, brand new, exotic, mainstream, old, etc. I am very proud of this channel and have built it up from amateur videos years ago to what you see today. I wanted to share my love for the automotive world with the rest of the world. Be sure to explore the massive video variety, have fun and enjoy The Driver's Seat of CZcams!

    I ordered this S convertible in summer of 06 and kept it till December of 18. With 165000 it was a dependable and fun car even in the upper midwest. I switched to a 2015 cooper and loved the room and updated amenities but still missed the charms of my 06 convertible. I found a chili red 06 similar to this review with "only" 81000 miles this spring and sold my 15 cooper. It may seem backward but ya, loving the original that much. Thanks for the complete breakdown of an 06 mini convertible!

    While I don't have a Mini, they are cool cars. The ragtop really fits this type of car. If I were to ever own one, a Cooper S convertible is it!

    Kyle, Keep up the good work.. I found this to be really interesting. My neighbor had one on lease and she enjoyed it. When they killed the SC version, she went with the BMW 3 series. When your a true gear head, It doesn't matter what flavor of car it is. Thanks

    All minis have that sound, they sound much better in person. Unfortunately they don't have that unique sound with the turbo models, I miss it lol

  • @Stix_57
    @Stix_57 Před 3 lety +1

    I swear I’m going to get one in the next year or two. These things are so dang cool. I might try to get a cope tho not a convertible.

  • @Maverick12371
    @Maverick12371 Před 10 lety +4

    That 'hoover' sound for the last few minutes sounds like the coolant needs topping up. I hope they did this before selling the car. Don't want to bust the engine...
    I had this sound coming from my mini, same model, 1 year younger. Coolant was empty and my car nearly overheated.

    • @nikesb1400
      @nikesb1400 Před 10 lety +6

      Thats just the cooling fans pulling air through the radiator because the car has been sitting stationary with no air going through the radiator.

    i own a 05 convertible s i took it on a long road trip through California was a blast to drive i did have a issue the car would go into a fail safe mode my engine light and eml light came on while driving slow in traffic it would only go 5 mpg i shut it off and it would go normal but then go fail safe again i took it to Marko Polo's bmw mini shop in La Jolla turns out was the harmonic balancer was shot and throwing the timing off cost $900 was worth it he gave us a good deal took him long to take part off it kinda ruined our trip but we love our mini so much we don't care if you buy one make sure you have it checked out my car runs better than ever

    Hey Kyle, I hate to pester you, and I know you are a very busy man and that you can't please everyone, but it would be great to see more land rovers on your channel! You don't have any LR2s, LR3s, LR4s, 2010+ Range Rover Sports, or any recent 2010+ Range Rovers (apart from the Evoques of course!) on your channel, which is pretty much their entire range. I think they're really unique and beautiful vehicles and it would be great to see more of them on saabkyle04. Thanks a lot!

  • @rtistik
    @rtistik Před 11 lety

    Great review Kyle I like those little Mini Coopers, they are very cool looking cars. If you have the chance, could you do a review of the new 2013 GMC Terrain Denali V6 Crossover please, I'm very interested in that vehicle more than the regular non-Denali Terrain. Thanks!

    @The458Scuderia Před 11 lety

    Its not designed for big American things, its designed to be a compact yet sporty car for normal use, the supercharger actually makes more difference in the car compared to a large V8 car as its less weight to pull so its more noticeable performance gain, as for the exhausts, they sound pretty cool i thought.
